This book focuses on the emotional impact of an event in which twelve year old Maddie wakes up to find herself completely isolated in her town. Told in sparing but emotionally-charged free verse, Maddie and her neighbor's dog team up to survive in modern day Colorado. Unlike some other survival stories (e.g. Hatchet and My Side of the Mountain) this book doesn't spend a lot of time on the logistics or wildcraft. References to other books like Island of the Blue Dolphins and the poetry of Mary Oliver abound.
